arXiv:2608. 02625v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion language models (DLMs) can revise tokens bidirectionally, but standard decoding procedures often adapt them to left-to-right generation by producing text block by block.
arXiv:2606. 27474v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: How should we evaluate generation systems that combine autoregressive (AR) and diffusion decoding?
arXiv:2607. 19223v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speculative decoding, in which a lightweight draft model first generates a draft sequence that is then verified in parallel by the target model, has become a prevalent paradigm for accelerating large language model inference.
arXiv:2606. 02544v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) have recently emerged as a promising alternative to autoregressive (AR) LLMs, offering faster inference through parallel or blockwise decoding.
Speculative decoding, in which a lightweight draft model first generates a draft sequence that is then verified in parallel by the target model, has become a prevalent paradigm for accelerating large language model inference. Recent work such as DFlash further boosts drafting efficiency by leveraging diffusion drafters, whose parallel denoising mechanism enables draft generation in a single forward pass.
Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive language model inference by using a cheap drafter to propose multiple future tokens and a target model to verify them. A common design goal is therefore to improve draft quality while reducing auxiliary parameters and systems overhead.
arXiv:2608. 08721v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates large language model inference by drafting multiple tokens for parallel verification, with efficiency critically determined by the speculative length selected at each decoding round.
arXiv:2606. 04446v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive large language model inference by drafting multiple tokens and verifying them in a single target-model forward pass.
arXiv:2608. 11235v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion language models (DLMs) update many tokens in parallel, yet practical decoders often use a fixed denoising horizon.
arXiv:2608. 13524v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speculative decoding losslessly accelerates autoregressive language models by verifying multiple draft tokens in parallel.
arXiv:2607. 12422v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive language model inference by using a cheap drafter to propose multiple future tokens and a target model to verify them.
arXiv:2607. 21535v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speculative decoding accelerates autoregressive generation by having a cheap draft propose tokens that a target verifies in parallel.
Speculative decoding losslessly accelerates autoregressive language models by verifying multiple draft tokens in parallel. Diffusion-based drafters further reduce proposal latency by predicting an entire token block in parallel, but their position-wise distributions are marginal rather than conditioned on tokens selected along each draft path.
